LEDVANCE proudly introduces the hazardous location lighting family, including high bay, floodlight, linear, and jelly jar. They are suitable for lots of heavy industries, such as oil refineries, chemical processing plants, steel mills, and shipbuilding yards. Using LED technology, our hazardous lighting fixtures deliver high energy efficiency, extended lifespan, and optimal lighting performance in demanding and explosive environments.
Regardless of indoor or outdoor application, LEDVANCE hazardous lighting solutions comply with stringent certification requirements and industry standards, ensuring your compliant operation.
Hazardous location lighting is specifically designed for dangerous industrial environments. If ordinary lighting fixtures are used, electrical sparks or excessive heat from the fixture can ignite flammable materials. In these environments, lighting must not only deliver illumination, it must also eliminate risks from gases, vapors, dust, or fibers, while withstanding corrosion, shock, and vibration to ensure safe and reliable operation.
Key Use Cases
● Oil & Gas refineries and offshore platforms
● Chemical processing plants
● Wastewater treatment facilities
● Heavy industrial manufacturing
● Shipping terminals and loading docks
When you can’t compromise safety or performance, LEDVANCE hazardous location fixtures deliver dependable illumination backed by industry-leading engineering, certifications, and an affordable price point.
● Explosion-proof construction - designed to prevent ignition in volatile atmospheres.
● Certified for hazardous areas - meets UL844 and other applicable standards.
● Rugged durability - heavy duty, corrosion and impact-resistant for extreme conditions.
● Multiple mounting options - surface, pendant, wall, stanchion, and more.
● Long lifespan & reduced maintenance - reliable LED technology minimizes maintenance and downtime.
LEDVANCE hazardous location products meet recognized safety standards including FCC, RoHS, UL844, CSA 22.2, and are rated for extreme environments. These certifications verify that the fixtures are engineered to safely operate in tough areas. IP66 and IK08 ratings ensure long service even in wet, dusty, or high-impact conditions. Our hazardous light fixtures help industrial facilities simplify compliance, pass safety inspections, and operate with confidence in heavy manufacturing.
Switching to LED benefits safety, efficiency, and long-term operation in industrial environments.
● Energy savings over legacy HID/fluorescent solutions
● Longer lifespan and durability.
● Minimal maintenance and downtime
● Lower heat generation
● Instant start and stable performance
● Better light distribution and visual performance
● Enhanced safety in hazardous atmospheres
Also, LED hazardous fixtures reduce replacement and repair costs over time, allowing facilities to achieve payback within a few years.
Class I Division 1 applies to hazardous environments where flammable gases exist under normal circumstances, so luminaires must be fully explosion‑proof. Class I Division 2 applies to areas where gas is not likely to exist under normal conditions and appears only in abnormal cases, such as leakage; therefore, the explosion‑proof requirements for lamps are relatively lower. Simply put, Division 1 areas are more dangerous and require stricter lighting requirements.
Explosion-proof lighting is a special type of hazardous location lighting. Hazardous location lighting generally refers to fixtures used in regions with the risk of flammability and explosion.
The T‑Code rating is an explosion‑proof grade identifier for lighting in hazardous areas, classified by the equipment’s highest surface temperature to prevent ignition of flammable gases or dust. Simply put, the smaller the number after ‘T,’ the lower the surface temperature and the higher the safety level.
Lighting equipment in hazardous areas can operate under extreme temperatures. They are designed to be very heat and cold resistant. This can ensure safe use even in harsh environments.
